Summary

ICA is a pure intraday momentum program, focusing on large tail events in global equity indices, aiming to stay away from the average daily trading ranges that tend to be mean reverting. ICA is designed to benefit from big intraday moves to the upside as well as downside, generating pure alpha and providing hedging capabilities in times of crisis without the usual cost of an insurance premium.

Investment Strategy

ICA is a pure intraday momentum program, focusing on large tail events in global equity indices, aiming to stay away from the average daily trading ranges that tend to be mean reverting. ICA is designed to benefit from big intraday moves to the upside as well as downside, generating pure alpha and providing hedging capabilities in times of crisis without the usual cost of an insurance premium. Trading only intraday and closing out all positions by the end of the trading session, ICA is extremely capital efficient and can be implemented on top of any portfolio without additional capital requirements. While the program has initially been developed and traded on the S&P 500 futures, it has matured into a global program, trading a total of 16 equity index futures in the uncorrelated intraday sessions in the US, Asia (added in 01/2019) and Europe (added in 11/2019).
